Originally at 7.23kg with suspension fork/6.27kg rigid, but had to made some changes. Now with XX crankset (instead of lightning), eggbeater 1 pedals with ti spindle (instead of XTR) and Stans race gold (instead of Extralite/crest) @ 7.46 kg suspension/6.5kg rigid. Looking to shed some weight with a new set of carbon wheels this year (and hopefully increase stiffness). Target of 7.4 kg flat with suspension and 6.4 kg rigid.

Those are some of the upgrades I'm thinking myself actually. Some S-Works Renegades will take close to 400g off my bike for under $100. I just weighed my skewers, I could loose close to 100g right there.

I built this up at the end of last season(September) and have only gotten a few rides in on it as Winter made it's way to our trails. It's not totally weight weenied' out, and there is a ton of weight to be shaved if I decided to, but I built it to be "light-weight" and yet sturdy as it's my race bike and training bike. Contemplated swapping the frame for a Niner Air9, as it would be over 380grams lighter just in the frame, but I do love the look and feel of this frame, despite it's weight. Came out to 23.17lbs/10.5kg... Easy potential of half a pound of weight savings between the stem(easton ea70), seatpost(ec90), saddle(ergon sm3), skewers and rotors, if I wanted to start geeking out on it, which will most likely happen this year as the road bike is at a comfortable weight now...

This is my budget weenie 29" singlespeed. Started life as a Canondale Trail SL3 29" SS bike, the aim was to keep it under £1000. Didn't quite stay under a grand, but it's not far over.Original weight was 11.5kg/25.5lb, currently comes in at 9.6kg/21.2lb (would like to get sub 20lb)

There are some planned changes, waiting on a HBC 32t chainring, which will go with a Sram X9 chainset. Possibly new tyres, or at least a lighter front one. Ti bolts for rear hub, stem, seatpost clamp. Maybe new pedals, not sure which though (anything but Crank Brothers).

Hi, what would be the main use of a full rigid, single speed 29er? Thanks
